CRIMSON TIDE IS READY TO OFFER ITS MPRO5 MOBILE SOLUTION WITH ENHANCED SECURITY AND AVAILABILITY WITH WINDOWS AZURE
Crimson Tide is a leading developer of cloud-based mobile business applications
Crimson Tide today announced that it has signed an agreement to use Microsoft's cloud platform, Windows Azure, as the foundation of the company's mpro business applications. Crimson Tide's latest version of mobility software, mpro 5, offers compatibility with iOS, Android and upcoming Windows 8 smartphones and tablets, and integrates with Windows Azure to provide current and future customers with the most secure, reliable and robust enterprise application available.
Windows Azure provides robust mechanisms for scalability, availability, and security of cloud applications. Windows Azure runs in Microsoft datacentres that have world class security controls in place backed by independent security certifications and attestations. Privacy and safeguarding of customer data are of utmost importance to Microsoft, which is why Windows Azure is offering to sign E.U. Model Contractual Clauses for its core services to provide additional contractual guarantees around transfers of personal data. This is especially important for Crimson Tide's customers involved in the healthcare sector, where securing patient information is fundamental to application development.
"By launching our mpro5 solution on Microsoft's Windows Azure platform I believe that we will be offering one of the most powerful, reliable and adaptable enterprise applications currently on the market," said Barrie Whipp, Executive Chairman, Crimson Tide. "As a company we strive to make continual enhancements and improvements to our system to ensure that our customers are provided with a world class platform. By working with Microsoft I am confident that Windows Azure will provide our mpro5 users with market leading functionality and significant value."
"With Windows Azure Mobile Services, developers can easily connect a cloud back end to client and mobile applications that can use data across devices and users," said Bill Hamilton, Director, Windows Azure Marketing, Microsoft. "Crimson Tide's mpro5 solution takes advantage of Windows Azure Mobility Services to give customers the global scale, security and reliability inherent in the Windows Azure cloud."
